7-ply, all wood, not to fast - Xiom Solo? there are some other great Xiom all-wood blades, but are 5-ply ... I think the most expensive is around 65€, this should do? Xiom Hayabusa OFF Pro is a great one ...

or probably tackier ...

I played with Bluegrip C2 and Xiom JH C55, with latter being the best rubber I have played with in recent time ... Bluegrip C2 is also very nice, main difference between the two being C55 plays a lot softer than declared 55 and C2 as declared 55 if not a bit harder. C55 also has more kick, or...

ah, yes, thanks for reminding me I am waiting for this. Nittaku versions of Hurricanes can wait ... 🤪

hello there! so, I have tried the "regular" unboosted DHS Hurricane 3 and like it for most of time, but I did not like the fact that it can bite you when you are not correct with timing and/or positioning. I do not want to get things messy and start playing with boosting (then I go back to speed...

I know this isn’t the Omega thread, but please, do report on the durability of O8 China. thx! 🙏🏼

Donic Bluegrip S1. thank me later.

Vega China Hybrid series is quite light, I guess? I think they are the lightest of the hybrid rubbers I have tried ...

and please, do not forget to share your findings with us! 😉

like I said many times … Vega Pro H is very linear, very controlled, but it actually gives you what you demand of it. so if you want it to be fast, and know how to properly extract speed out of your strokes, then it will be fast. but if you prefer placement over power, it will help you do just...

I am loving it more and more and after unfortunately destroying C55 I tried it on forehand, and guess what - it works great! :D

it's also on my wishlist ... quite a few now ... C52.5, Omega 8 China & Hybrid, Z52.5 ... and that's just Xiom ... :p then we have Donic's new hybrids (J-series) and Rakza Z, Rising II and Shining Dragon II ... DHS GoldArc 8 (BOTH!) ... the list just keeps growing and funds on bank account keep...

so Truls at the Olympics against FZD was also lame morality?

do tell more about this “decent durability”. I had Xiom JH C55 and after 2 practice/playing sessions and amateur national champs it looked pretty poor but performed perfectly still … but then I accidentally bumped the chair during play and it was toast. Vega Pro H is still going strong, expect...

one more thing I forgot to add at first place - don't be to stiff! your hand needs to be relaxed, wrist needs to be flex needs to feel almost loose ...

1) you elbow doesn’t follow the ball (maybe because of the timing issue? try to get the ball more in front of you, not so much by the side) 2) you are “sitting” on your heels 3) you are not doing any hip rotation …

Butterfly Klampar and Butterfly Sriver on both sides …

I had OSP's Expert which is supposed to have top layer of dark limba, but i was rather a mixture of darker and lighter spots all across the top layer. ;)

I completely agree - it is quite subjective, as we all have unique arm with unique feeling ... I mean, in the end, most of the table tennis players praise Hurricane, but I say it is a very demanding rubber (and I personally really don not like it). most people say Xiom Vega Pro H is a slow...

this! Nittaku's version, how could I forget this one! it's like - DHS said we will make regular, and Nittaku said ok, then we make same, but boosted. deal? deal. :)
